I Know Something You Don't Know -- And I Will Tell You!

By altonparrish3 on | From nanopatentsandinnovations.blogspot.com
Many animals produce alarm calls to predators, and do this more often when kin or mates are present than other audience members. So far, however, there has been no evidence that they take the other group members' knowledge state into account.  Researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, and the University of St. Andrews, Great Britain, set up a study with wild chimpanzees in Uganda and found that chimpanzees were more likely to alarm call...Read Full Story

Initial analyses of four billion base pairs of Neanderthal...Read Full Story

True Science of Dogma: Some Scientist Revaluating Evolution

By samkadya on | From heiscalling.com
Evolutionary ideas are generally thought to refer to the origin of living things. However, such ideas have seeped into many aspects of science to include sciences dealing with both living and nonliving things.  See Related Story.   For example, the study of the formation of the stars, galaxies, and the universe itself employs evolutionary ideas in the sense that many believe that natural, nondeliberate, nondirected changes acting over time can produce all of the features of our universe...Read Full Story

Happy B-Day, Charles Darwin!
To say Charles Darwin’s Origin of the Species changed the landscape for discussions about science and religion would be a drastic understatement. Origin’s publication in 1859 was more like a new big bang; its aftershock has rippled through discussions about the relationship between science and religion to the present.
